[SpAmRaY]

When is this starting? I've been waiting for so long, but mr potek keep making delay : (

I know reading is hard but it's in the OP.

I know humor is hard, but this was clearly a joke.

My bad I thought you were Mr. Srsbns

[gameaholic]

I need at least 2 of these.  One to use and one for backup.

That's what I'm wanting to do also (wallet willing).

HOW MUCH DOES THIS COST AND HOW / WHERE CAN U BUY THIS??   

[ideus]

HOW MUCH DOES THIS COST AND HOW / WHERE CAN U BUY THIS??   

The set is not in stock, ready to ship.

It will be a group buy instead, that means interested members should pay the product in advance and the group leader will purchase the product in behalf of the group. The manufacturer will produce the set and the leader will received the entire order, and finally he will send each individual order to the group buyers. It is a process that may take weeks, in some cases GB has lasted even months.

And welcome to GH.


Edit: The group buy is not open yet, it depends on the group leader to open the period of GB call, so if you are interested check the GB thread periodically.

haha hi! I'm a 2 year GH lurker now because I try to deny my secret keyboard fetish to myself and not post / buy . Can't find the groupbuy thread for this.. is it opened yet? small little question.. is this set compatible with a kbc poker II? Thank you!

Well, then forget the welcoming. The set is compatible with the Poker because the Poker has standard ANSI layout. Again, the GB is not open yet.

Photekq I am sure it will be similar to other gmk buys but do you have a price yet? Or are you waiting to release that info.

Stoked we are finally getting some news. Been waiting forever for this buy.

Yeah, price will be about the same as other buys.

[Blackehart]

[Joey Quinn]

That poor 360C but it did make for an interesting livestream.

Back on topic: I'm pretty sure I'm in on this buy if I'm able to work this semester. 

[shower_king]

looking forward to this set.

[clacktalk]

this is the plain jane that i've been waiting for. you're doing the dark lord's work, photekq.

Plain Jane, no, she is the hottest, only that she is dressed old fashioned.

[swornxin]

This is one I have been looking forward to.  Hoping the mod pack hits MOQ, because the fullset is worthless to me without it.  Haha.

Sort of related to this...but in the TX1800 thread, there's a new keycap maker in Korea called Lyn? They're making dyesub PBT caps with a slight tweak to the classic Beiege colorway like how Olivetti GMK is. I would *love* to see a slight tweak in double-shot ABS GMK. Especially these purple caps. The Olivetti GMK is nice but it would be great to see more colors in doubleshot. Red, Green, Purple, Pink, etc. Just a thought .

Besides the image you posted and the site that shows it I was not able to find anything about a manufacturer called Lyn. Maybe it does not have any internet presence. Otherwise, I wonder if it exists at all.

Guessing you didn't check the TX1800 thread? That's where many of the updates are. I don't know if it's a single person or a company. I also don't know if it's Lyn, Lin, Lin3, or Lyn3. You are more than welcome to PM kin25 for more info.

I am not interested in Lyn, but in understand if it is an actual manufacturer, as you stated, or a simple reference for caps made by someone else.

[sorijealut]

Yeah, in the Korean forums it's 린x3, or 린, 린삼, which is Lynx3, Lyn or Lyn3. All the same!

He does not have a website to my knowledge, and runs his case group buys and his new keycap group buys right on the web boards.

I contacted him back in November or so about his beige and grey keyset and purchased it as he was willing to ship to US. Unfortunately there were some customs issues so it was delayed a whole bunch (still haven't received them yet).

He'd actually posted here in GH https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=65649.0 but it went unnoticed.
As he doesn't speak much English, if anyone would like to ask questions, you can let me know and I can ask on your behalf.

Wow.  I hadn't seen those in that thread.  Would definitely be interested in some if a GB gets started.

He stated that you can put in an order for the caps alone, they'll just cost slightly more if you're not ordering them with the TX1800

Thanks    I was just reading that.


Photekq,

Is there any estimate on when this GB will start yet?

[Photekq]

When Hyperfuse gets to a comfortable position this GB will start

[CommonCurt]

Okay cool.  How long will it run for?  Around a month like most GB's?

[Belfong]

I'm guessing this will be before Triumph Adler? Don't forget that other wallet hack. I'm pretty much in for this GB but I do need to wait it out a bit. And oh, lousy USD exchange rate now

Little tip for Massdrop buys - if you don't want to pay till the very end just sign up and mark your payment as Bitcoin, they'll send you an email when the drop is over to get you to pay and then you can change to CC payment

Depends how quickly orders fill up

I won't wait for TA. I've waited long enough to run this. I wanted to start this last year, but delays from GMK, 85|15, etc. meant that couldn't happen. Hyperfuse is the last thing I'll be waiting for before launching.

[naasfu]

So many good GMK GBs.  Really looking forward to this one.  Thanks, Pho!

[swornxin]

Hyperfuse and this may be the last keysets I'll buy. All of mine will be decked out in GMK then. Although I am hoping an RGB buy will happen at some point.

This key set is for connoisseurs only. The peasants go for the bright colors. )

Really can't wait for this one. Ugh. Hard to contain my excitement, but definitely putting funds aside for it all. Maybe two sets!
